I wonder if it's the same seller? I had originally purchased the Aqua blue fin out of multiple listings of different sizes and colors they had.
They were one of the few places that had my size in the color I wanted (or so I thought), so I grabbed it. The listing showed that there were 2 available.
Then I too, received a message from them about a week later stating they were out of that color but had the same one in Sunset Orange.
I was crestfallen, but took the orange fin since I wanted a Mahina so badly. Plus, I planned to cover it in a fabric tail 99% of the time anyway. Still, that's no less annoying. Sorry that happened to you, too
The even more vexing part is that the listing (which ended soon after I bought my fin) is back up again - listing 6 available. But if it's not in stock (going from last night's email) then it shouldn't even be listed...
I'm also really worried that the one I wanted won't even be right after all even if I wait... I know that the only current colors for adults are turquoise and orange but that there used to be a child large/adult small in coral pink. That was the one I wanted and he supposedly had it. I was thrilled to have actually found it and then paid for expedited shipping since it was only $4 more than regular and I'd have it Monday. Now I'm not even sure what to do...
I did email the seller to express my concern over the whole situation.
If it doesn't go through and I still want to get the Merfin I'll have to decide between turquoise and orange... neither of which I'm too fond of (especially since I was going to have it show out of my fabric tail).
(The ebay seller is southfl2010. Is that who you had trouble with?)
